Did you know that our greater Charlotte region will add another 1.8 million people and another 860,000+  jobs by 2050?  Where will they all live?  Where will they work, and how will they, and those of us who are already here, get around?

CONNECT Our Future has been working with over 90 partners, local governments, and over 4,000 residents to learn what’s important to the region as we grow, and to begin planning for this kind of growth.  YOU can provide your thoughts on how we should grow by telling us what you think of the four different growth options that have been developed from input to date.  Here’s how you can do that:

• Go to a FORUM:  Find out more about the events and dates, times, and locations, at http://bit.ly/RegisterForCountyForums.
• Go ON LINE and use our interactive website to see the growth options and tell us how they’d work for you:   http://connectourfuture.metroquest.com
• Use your smart phone to access the site via the QR code below.
• Have us come to your club, organization, school, church, or business for a presentation and keypad polling.

This is another important way for you to share your thoughts to help guide our future, so that we Grow by Choice, Not Chance.  CONNECT Our Future is a project of Centralina and Catawba Regional Councils of Governments, and for more information, please visit the website: www.ConnectOurFuture.org.   And thank you in advance for your participation!
